I'm sure Doug Greene is right, but wonder if the historical detections 
of John Dickson Carr aren't an exception to his stability thesis, since 
some at least revolve around a flickering back and forth between the safe 
present and the dangerous past.  As to the destabilising effects of the 
Great War, might these not be exemplified by such characters as Bulldog 
Drummond and his gang of unsettled proto-fascists?
